MailThis

@nickfreiling The site is not that good. I can't even find what it costs. You should think about improving that?

@mrahmadawais We've added pricing here, and also to our new video. Thanks for the suggestion.

@yash_verma3 No. I realize probably 90% of the reason why someone snail mails something is because it's a document that can't be photocopied without losing some of its value. But this is for the last 10%, or for new uses (like non-US firms being able to inexpensively follow-up via USPS with their US sales prospects).

@nickfreiling Makes sense, wish you all the best!

@evomoore No hard plans, but it's definitely a long-term goal.

@evomoore https://lob.com/ is already the twilio of physical mail

@evomoore @_jacksmith That's true. Lob is great. What we're trying to do (right now) is make this user-friendly for people needing to send one document every so often. It's a whole other space building an API and syncing with direct marketing firms, CRMs, etc. I'm still thinking through our best angle here.

@evomoore @nickfreiling yeah - your product seems to be a totally different value proposition. that's why i was confused by so many people asking for an api, when lob.com already exists. for your use case, I normally use: https://www.mailform.io/ but will check out your site in the future

@evomoore @_jacksmith Mailform is a good product, but very expensive. The way I see it, the inconvenience of having to send snail mail is pretty low. Annoying, but not a huge deal. Most won't pay $7 just to send one letter, which is what Mailform costs for a 5-page color document. That costs just $1.75 with MailThis.

@patryk_golabek COVID-inspired, actually. Been stuck at home, but wanted to send snail mail. Had no envelopes or stamps. So I solved the problem with the tools I did have!

@tom_jenkins Not sure I understand your question. We take care of this through partnerships with a few professional mail processing centers in the US. Exactly how we manage this going forward is still something I'm thinking through. I'm increasingly inclined to keep all of this in-house, to have the strongest possible grip on document security. But as it is, these orders are processed and letters mailed without anyone ever seeing the document -- this is as important to me as making sure the digital files themselves are encrypted and secure.

@shaikharfan7 Yes! We're working specifically on setting up a page designed specifically for this purpose, but the page as-it-is does exactly what you describe.

@_jacksmith Almost all of those questions are answered on the website homepage. But the fact that you're bringing this up despite that means I need to take another look at that page, to make sure it's all clear.

@nickfreiling i can’t see any details about the tracking? also meant how mailform says how long to expect it to take to arrive after dispatch. thanks

@_jacksmith Thanks for the suggestion. I'll think about how to add this information to the homepage.
